Trying to follow the ECI Break-In instruction and would appreciate your input on interpreting the following:
"10. On take‐off, use minimum power to reach 40 MPH (IAS) before applying required take‐off power. CAUTION: Determine that there is sufficient runway remaining in order to reach take‐off airspeed.
11. Use take‐off power only as long as necessary to get to BEST CLIMB SPEED. Reduce manifold pressure to minimum required for clean in‐flight attitude. Reduce power to 75%. Use minimum rate of climb with maximum air speed consistent with terrain."
My draft flight card:
1. Accelerate to 35 knots (40 mph), ???? RPM.
2. At 35 knots, advance throttle to ~2500 rpm (75%)
3. Climb at 100-110 knots over the airport to 3000 AGL.
4. Level flight at 75% (~2400-2500 rpm) for 20-30 minutes
Sure hope you guys can comment on this. I've read AC 90-89A several times and will incorporate the suggested control inputs. I'm mostly confused about what it takes to get to 35 knots and if there is another lower throttle setting (less than 2500 rpm) trying to stay at Vy .
